While we're proud of our North East roots, our client base extends across the United Kingdom. From London to Edinburgh, we work with organisations who value quality software development at sensible prices.
Our hybrid working model means we can kick off projects with in-person workshops, then collaborate remotely for day-to-day development. The result: efficient delivery without the overhead of a London postcode.
We offer comprehensive software development services across the North East of England, including bespoke software development, mobile app development (iOS, Android, and cross-platform), web applications, cloud solutions, API development, and digital transformation consulting.

Yes, while we're based in the North East, we work with clients across the UK and internationally. Our location allows us to offer competitive pricing while delivering the same quality as London-based agencies. We use modern collaboration tools like Slack, Teams, and project management platforms for remote projects, while offering in-person meetings and workshops for local clients or when face-to-face collaboration adds value.
